About Saint Joseph's
• With a berth in the 2022 Atlantic 10 Championship, the Hawks are making their 12th appearance in the conference's postseason, all coming under the guidance of head coach Jess Mannella.
• As the eighth seed a season ago, St. Joe's advanced to the semifinals of the 2021 A-10 Championship.
• Saint Joseph's has earned an A-10 postseason bid in eight of the last nine seasons, marking the second most by an A-10 program behind only Dayton.
• The Hawks finished the 2022 regular season tied for sixth in the A-10 standings alongside UMass, but earned the higher seed due to the conference tie-breaking rules. St. Joe's record versus common opponents was better than the Minutewomen, giving the Hawks the higher seed.
• Junior goalkeeper Katie Cappelletti enters the A-10 Championship fourth all-time in career shutouts with 14, while her six shutouts this season are tied for seventh most in a single season.
• Saint Joseph's has fared well in its 11 appearances at the A-10 Championship as nine different Hawks have earned A-10 All-Championship Team distinctions. Goalkeeper Grace Bendon is the lone Hawk to earn A-10 All-Tournament Team honors twice as she was recognized in 2016 and 2017.
